How to Make Hershey's Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 3/4 cup packed brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups Hershey's chocolate chips and 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional).
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. For thinner cookies, use a jelly roll pan (see step 9).
- **Alternative (Jelly Roll Pan Method):** Spread the batter evenly in a greased 15x10 inch jelly-roll pan. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-22 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
